KARACHI: President, Awami National Party (ANP) Sindh, Shahi Syed
said that it was a wrong perception to recognize all Urdu speaking
people as Mohajirs or every Mohajir as Urdu speaking.
Shahi
Syed said this in a statement issued from Bacha Khan Centre here on
Thursday that the count of Mohajireen from East and West Punjab and
Jammu and Kashmir were more than in millions as compared to Urdu
speaking people.
The ANP leader said that we highly oblige the
existence of all nationalities and all segments of society without any
kind of discrimination on the bases of race, color, language and caste.
He maintained that Urdu speaking community and Wali Khan Baba
jointly supported Mohtarma Fatima Jinnah during presidential election
in 1965. Political leaders should demonstrate tolerance, patience and
respect towards each other despite mud slinging.
Shahi Syed
further added that Army operation in Karachi has always been the demand
of ANP and the party also demanded to re-set constituencies in the city
and to remove reservations of all political parties by holding fresh
elections in the city. Online
